Replying to: brightness04 (Mar 23, 2007 7:45 am) Well, I'll agree and disagree. One look at NASA and Club racing will show that old E30's and 911's finish on the podium as often as their newer, more sophisticated cousins. I will say that cars today are the result of a natural (unfortunate) steady "improvement" of the breed. They have aged with us - like us, they're softer, heavier, and more mature than a few years ago, yet they still cling to a part of the "inner party animal" they used to be. Personally, I'll pass on the fillet mignon and cabernet, thank you. I want Doritos and a rum & coke.

Replying to: brightness04 (Mar 23, 2007 4:19 pm) From a performance point of view, a properly set up e30 rear suspension will perform basically the same as an E90 rear suspension - that is, it will adjust camber with changes in suspension load to optimize tire contact with the pavement. BTW, I didn't know BMW made a V6. On what cars does this engine appear?

Replying to: fedlawman (Mar 23, 2007 7:38 pm) I want my Cabernet and FM and eat it too. When lighter weight metals and better synthetics are integrated into the formula to get the weight under 1.5 tons in this category, I will get my wish. For now, I will need to work out harder to keep up with the extra calories! Regards, OW |
